Dear TRNSYS users,
I am trying to simulate a flat plate solar collector. I want to:
(1) Let the pump run when solar radiation is higher than specific number and
(2) Set the output temperature at 85 °C.
Type 540 can simulate the collector for constant output temperature but there is no control signal in its input for the other purpose.
I think that I should use
· type 1 instead of type 540 for solar collector and a variable speed pump (type 3)
· a differential controller (type 2d) and an iterative feedback controller (type 22)
I don’t understand how I should connect the inputs and outputs of controllers to the variables of pump and collector.
I really appreciate it if someone gives me a clue.
Regards,
Rambod Rayegan
